    There is a good chance that I may be driving a lot more for work and my goals of having a big turbo build may have to be reeled in a little bit. So for argument sake the new build is going to be based around pulling in 35mpg if it's at all possible. Max HP goal will be 400whp. Now onto the setup....

    Open Loop Tune
    ST2 Cam
    Double Roller
    Crow 130# springs
    Ti Retainers
    Front & Rear P-logs
    Z7 crossover
    Z7 downpipe
    Turbonetics 62-1 with .82A/R exhaust housing
    Off-road downpipe
    Stock catback
    Treadstone TR10 IC w/2.5" piping (May step up to the TR12 4.5" thick....depends on how well it fits)
    L26 intake with HV3
    Possibly a set of ported heads w/stock valves

    TEP Stage II valve body
    300m
    2.93 7/8"
    Stock HD diff
    Undecided on Converter - Suggestions?

    Currently with Catruning kit on it the car has made 346whp (diagnosed clogged converter) so with that taken care of it would have been a better number. Havnen't had a chance to see what it would change to as the trans started slipping in 1st (input clutch piston wear)

    Ok, I'm sure there are a few things that I have missed so just ask if I did...Anyone have any helpful suggestion on achieving my goals that I already haven't thought of?
